@arianrubio As one Bernie supporter put it to me recently, “Bernie is as much an enemy of the Democrats as he is the Republicans. You know that right?”
Yeah, thanks - and that’s why most Democrats aren’t supporting him. 🙄

Mike Pence is for conversion therapy. Mike Pence said smoking didn’t cause cancer. Mike Pence doesn’t believe climate science. Mike Pence questioned whether or not condoms worked. So, 😬

.@CongressmanJVD isn't just the sharpest dressed member of Congress, he's also leading the efforts in the House to permanently fund the all-important Land & Water Conservation Fund. #FundLWCF

[Jamie Lockwood @RealWorldJamie]

So glad my colleague, @SophiaHullEnvNJ was able to attend an event with @CongressmanJVD at #CapeMay to clean the #beach and talk about his awesome bill to #FundLWCF.

[LWCF Coalition @LWCFCoalition]

A big thank you to @CongressmanJVD for celebrating National Public Lands Day with our partners at Cape May NWR in New Jersey! It was great to see an #LWCF champion touring a beautiful place that was protected using LWCF dollars! #FundLWCF

@MikeLittUSA @ewarren I hear #SheHasAPlan for that

Bird Nerds unite for #ArcticBirdFest! Birds fly to the Arctic Refuge from all 50 states and six continents (sorry Africa!). Check out this seriously cool virtual birding expedition into the Arctic Refuge.

[Environment America @EnvAm]

Join our friends from @AudubonAlaska1, @ManometCenter and @USFWS for the 2019 Arctic Refuge Virtual BirdFest. See (and hear!) some of the millions of birds that migrate to the Arctic Refuge annually.

Well that was fun. 2nd Annual Arctic Refuge virtual birdfest has a quiz to see what kind of Arctic bird are you! :)
I got: Driven and domestic, I am the Cackling Goose! Go here and click the quiz yourself.

The administration's rush to drill in the Arctic Refuge endangers polar bears, caribou, millions of migratory birds, and the health and security of the Gwich'in people.

[Environment America @EnvAm]

The Trump administration's Bureau of Land Management says their plans to drill for oil in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge could lead to extinctions. One more reason we shouldn't be drilling for oil there. #ProtectTheArctic https://t.co/DcIHZAXkud #ProtecttheArctic

[Erik DuMont @EnvironmentErik]

Protecting our cherished public lands should always be a bipartisan issue - thanks @RepStefanik for keeping the conservation in conservative!

[Environment New York @EnvNY]

We need to protect places that are still intact, such as the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. Last week, the House did just that. Let’s thank @RepStefanik and others who voted for the "Arctic Cultural and Coastal Plain Protection Act." #ProtectTheArctic

[Erik DuMont @EnvironmentErik]

Yeah... I saw this Trump tweet pulling the rug out from whatever paltry rationale drilling proponents had to begin with.

[Arctic Defense Campaign @defendthearctic]

If we're energy independent, why the rush to pollute the Arctic Refuge with dirty drilling? #ProtectTheArctic #StandWithTheGwichin

[Erik DuMont @EnvironmentErik]

Subhankar Bannerjee links the ongoing extinction crisis on our planet with the potential destruction in the Arctic Refuge from the administration's drilling plans. The administration even admits in those plans they may lead to additional extinctions.

Thanks @SpeakerPelosi for making today’s historic vote possible!

[Alaska Wilderness League @alaskawild]

Thank you @SpeakerPelosi for your leadership in the passage of H.R. 1146 Arctic Cultural and Coastal Plain Protection Act. As the Arctic warms, we need to protect the places that are still intact, like the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. #ProtectTheArctic

[Erik DuMont @EnvironmentErik]

That's right, we brought out both the bears today for the SUCCESSFUL 225-193 vote to restore protection to the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge!

[Lisa Frank @LisaKFrank1]

Today’s the day! The House will vote to #ProtectTheArctic and Arctic wildlife from destructive oil drilling.

[Rep. Jared Huffman @RepHuffman]

President Trump and his crony cabinet are waging a war on science with sharpies — and threatening reprisals against scientists for doing their jobs. In a place as special as the #Arctic Coastal Plain, this is a recipe for disaster. #ProtecttheArctic

[Erik DuMont @EnvironmentErik]

Today’s the big vote! Lets get it done!
#ProtectTheArctic

[John Podesta @johnpodesta]

Detonating a carbon bomb by drilling the Arctic Refuge while simultaneously chopping down our nation’s largest old growth forest will lock the U.S.— and the world– into future carbon pollution that would be devastating to our planet. See my WaPo OpEd: https://t.co/40aQcXHaR6
